I've inherited some 245/45/18 winter tyres (used on my brother's Jaguar XF). My aim is to sell them and buy some 225/45/18s for my R3 (I've got a set of 235/35/19 and 255/35/19 on rims for my Series1 project car).
However, as a back-up I'm tempted to fit them if I can't find any 225/45/18s at a reasonable price. I know that these tyres are the wrong size, I think I know all the potential pitfalls of fitting them and I've done a search of the site here and In the UK. A search showed that a few people have posted as fitting them without problems on Series 1s, but that may not be true for R3s and the latest post was 8 years ago.
Has anyone had any direct experience or knowledge of fitting 245/45/18 tyres on an R3? (please no comments on theory though, I've been through that).
